There are lots of websites to visit and read, and some that we come across would be great to set aside and read when we have more time to focus on it. Instapaper allows you to save all of the webpages you’d like to keep and read later. It also stores them in a way that cuts out all of the advertisements, non pertinent images, and just leaves the content that you want to enjoy. Instapaper also gives you the ability to create folders to organize what you have, connect with friends to find out what they’re reading, and access your account through the app or web browser so you can read even if your device is not close by.
